In this Blender tutorial we’ll discover the various UV tools in Blender, and learn to utilize them beneficially in our projects. UVs and UV layouts are important aspects of creating textures for our 3D models. The UV information serves as a bridge between the 3d objects we create and the 2d textures that we apply before rendering. UVs let us tell Blender how to apply the textures across the surface so having a good UV layout can really make a difference in speeding up the texture creation process and making your textures easily editable down the pipeline. We'll start by talking about the basic concept of UVs before moving on to learn about some of the different UV projection methods. We'll also talk about editing UVs and using multiple projections. We'll cover the output of reference files to give us a guide when texturing. By the end of this Blender training you'll have a better understanding of the purpose behind UVs and the knowledge you need to start creating and editing your own UV layouts.

In this in-depth Blender training video, you'll go through every step of the compositing process, from working with 3d and rendering, to tracked data from an external tracker like Syntheyes, to color correction and grading, it covers the gamut! When you walk away from this class, you'll have been introduced each of the core concepts needed to be a successful compositor, seamlessly integrating fully 3 dimensional CG into real footage. cmiVFX breaks down each tool one by one with fast and easy chapter references designed for even faster muscle memory. cmiVFX continues to deliver the training and content you need, quickly, efficiently and affordably. When it comes to high end CG and VFX training, there is only once choice… cmiVFX!

Create beautiful 3D models for video games, 3D printing, house design and more. From zero to hero in one amazing course. Blender is a fantastic platform which enables you to make AAA-quality models which can be exported to any game engine, 3D printer, or other software.

For a compositor, tracking is one of the most fundamental skills you can have. Everything depends on it, from rotoscoping and adding in simple things like lens flares, to more complex things like removing objects from a scene and advanced corner pinning.
